Mag 420

[kimmi]

Just bought 4 new mag 420 w1. Loaded first one. Says stb not supported. Updated software still the same
Is there a trick or do I have to go down to the 320 w1

 

[Jadaca]

Did you ever figure this out. Did you have to go down to 320?

I bought one as well and got the same stb not supported. js-no news on how to make it run----they said they did special maintenance and to reset mac but this did not work. js

I believe the issue may be that the 420 and along with other infomir models now run with the Ministra TV platform (Middleware supported).
They switched from Stalker Middleware to the Ministra and not all server support Ministra

MAG250, 254, 256 and some other MAG models running Stalker middleware (Ministra middleware is not currently supported)

I figured out a really good trick to fix! Buy another STB that you know is supported!

I bought service from a provider for my roku and had to download the ministra platform in order for it to work. My guess is that some providers use ministra and would function with 420 mags?

You are correct.
There is a Ministra Player for the following Platforms;

Ministra Player AndroidMinistra Player for Andrоid TV and STB
Ministra Plаyer AppleTV
Ministra Player iOS
Ministra Player on Roku
Ministra Player Tizen
Ministra Player WebOS
Ministra Player Smart TV
Ministra Web Player

* There is a Patch that the Provider may be able to implement, so that Ministra STB's can login to Stalker Portals;

• How to run MAG420/MAG322/MAG324 on the portal version 4.9.x?

*Patch To log in to the Stalker Middleware portal version 4.9.x

I wonder if a 420 would run as well with the patch for stalker as it does on ministra?

The patch is installed on the providers backend Stalker system, not the MAG STB's.

*It's probably a moot point anyways, as I do not think they would implement it.

Infomir no longer makes boxes that use stalker except 322 & 324. All their other new boxes employ ministra. I saw the old boxes advertised now for 2-3 times the original selling price! There doesn't seem to be many suppliers using ministra as of yet?

Hello I remember seeing the firmware of your STB is outdated. Please update it error in a posting before but plz. don’t ask me where I saw it though coz I do not remember. I did a bit of digging and found this http://iptvtalk.net/showthread.php?...e-of-your-STB-is-outdated&p=281380#post281380 which gives a way of fixing it. I am sure I am not the only person to face this error, and I doubt I will be the last.
